In Person Therapists in Greenstone

Ideally, I would like to work with a person who primarily wants to be empowered in developing practical solutions to alleviate their current challenges. This would be a person who has experienced any form of traumatic incident in the course of their recent life. Further, it would be an individual who has been displaying life adjustments which have begun to affect their personal and professional relationships. In light of these concerns, my ideal client would partner with me in developing a holistic treatment plan to address these issues for more effective functioning.

Many people I meet are seeking meaningful connection; they yearn to be listened to, fully seen and understood for who they truly are. They need to belong. I believe that if we all stood in a circle and held hands, each of us could take a little love from the person on their right, absorb what they need and pass the remainder on, to the person on their left. Is this not our role on the planet - to nourish and uplift one another as best we can?

Hello, thank you for reading my profile. I believe therapy is a process where a client and their therapist explores life events with the purpose of getting better. Life events impact how we think, feel and behave- so in therapy, we get to explore these crucial events in a safe and confidential environment. I work with clients who endeavor to rethink, heal and grow from a variety of issues including mental health conditions or symptoms. The issues that I am usually presented with include, life events such as trauma and bereavement, or presenting symptoms similar to anxiety, depression, ADHD, etc.

Every one of us is a professional athlete, intent on achieving personal greatness, whether this entails a balanced lifestyle, a more fulfilling relationship, a new business venture, a career change or promotion at work, retirement, an investment portfolio, the birth of a child, rehabilitation following surgery, diagnosis and treatment of a medical condition, an exercise programme or a goal in sport at any level. All aspects of life that we experience as intrinsically meaningful require that we feel in control, committed to goals, confident in our abilities and skills, perceiving challenges as opportunities for growth and success.

I work from an integrated framework, tying together the need for solutions, the desire to flourish and the ability to overcome. I have an appreciation for the solutions-focused mindset, where I acknowledge the value of learning from the past; helping you to integrate the skills you already have with new awareness and assets to face your challenges from a new perspective.

My ideal client is ready to embark on a journey of personal growth and healing. They may be grappling with addiction, anxiety, depression, life stress, or trauma. They seek a non-judgmental space to express their feelings, practical coping strategies, and professional guidance to make meaningful changes. Their goals include overcoming addiction, reducing anxiety, improving mood, managing stress, and healing from trauma. They desire inner peace, personal growth, empowerment, and fulfilment. They recognize the value of therapy and are committed to making positive changes in their lives.

I believe in a solution-focused and evidence-based approach that helps you as a client to heal, grow, change and to self-actualize by changing a pattern in your life. My passion is to unleash each unique individual’s full potential; and I work with all my clients to remove barriers that keep them from doing so. This is done by eliminating undesirable programs in the sub-conscious, and replacing them with affirming ones, which is a fast and efficient way for anybody to change an ineffective mindset and achieve their goals in life.

I love working with people who feel different. Specifically, with regards to gender, sex & sexuality, relationship structures and parenting with awareness & intention. In Sex Therapy we think about your sexual and intimate life. If sex (solo or partnered) is not what you had hoped it would be, counselling can be a helpful process to get a better understanding of how the body-mind connection works when it comes to the different elements of sex. I am committed to unpacking harmful narratives & misinformation, while creating a safe space for you to do the work.

A psychologist helps you deal with the issues through bringing perspective, exploring options, developing strategies and increasing self-awareness to get you back on your feet and empower you to take back control of your life. Therapy is not only for people who are feeling overwhelmed in areas of their lives but also for those who are curious about knowing and understanding themselves in greater depth and those who want the opportunity to share their views, be heard and gain new perspectives on their situation and experiences.
